A BRIEF INTRODUCTION TO Y-RAY IRRADIATION APPARATUS
The Y-ray irradiation apparatus is a device designed for
utilizing the ray irradiating substance emitted from the
radioactive isotopes cobalt-60 (60 Co) or caesium-137 (137 Cs).
It is a key apparatus employed for realization of the radiation
technical process.
Main Components of -Ray Irradiation Apparatus
The -ray irradiation apparatus consists of the following
systems:
1. Radiation source and operation system
Currently, cobalt-60 (60 Co) and caesium-137 (137 Cs) are
-ray radiation sources that equip irradiation apparatus.
The modes of arrangement and assembling of the radiation
Monoplate, Dual-plate, Cylindrical and Bar Shapes.
Two storing methods for the radiation source in the
irradiation room are employed dry and underwater. And
source:
such actions of the radiation source in the irradiation room
as rising, dropping into the water pool or pause at the
suspended position after rising are realized by means of the
driving mechanism manipulated on the console.
